Chereads / Changing My Fate At Age 30 / Chapter 4 - You Should Be Grateful to Him

Chapter 4 - You Should Be Grateful to Him

Late at night, I entered the bedroom after I had sorted out my thoughts and speech. Just as I was about to confront my wife, she suddenly threw away her phone and hugged me gently. "Hubby…"

Her voice sounded as if it was laced with honey, and it was so sweet that it made me tremble. I instantly understood what she wanted.

"I'm going to take a shower. You're not allowed to sleep. Wait for me, okay?" My wife breathed into my ear, her voice filled with seductive charm.

With that, she chuckled and released me before turning away.

Looking at how she swayed, I felt a myriad of emotions rushing through me.

Honestly speaking, after being married for so many years, not only am I not tired of my wife, but on the contrary, she has become even more charming.

Although I was furious now, I couldn't suppress my desire for her after seeing her act like this!

She was really too talented in certain areas!

It was no wonder that the bald man was willing to give her thirty million yuan. He was most likely infatuated with her body!

At the sudden thought of the bald vice president, my anger rose again!

F*ck!

How many times had she behaved in the same way to him? Did she sway before the b*stard before entering the bathroom?

He might even chase after her eagerly to take a bath with her!

Or perhaps, they could simply skip the bath and rush towards the main act!

I, on the other hand, had always thought that she was mine alone!

The more I thought about it, the more livid I became.

Damn!

Wasn't she with that ugly old man today?

Perhaps she came to me because she wasn't satisfied!

Was she using me as a tool?!

She had thrown the card in my face and humiliated me during the day.

But at night, she acted so wantonly, wanting to use me to satisfy herself!

Furious, I turned around, grabbed the blanket, and threw it to the ground!

F*ck!

Before long, my wife came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her. She ambled into the bedroom.

"Hubby!" My wife's voice was soft and was inexplicably seductive.

As she walked, she threw off her slippers and leaped onto the bed.

I leaned against the bed coldly and looked at her with a stoic expression. "Tell me, what is the relationship between that old man and you?"

My wife, who was about to pounce on me, was startled and froze.

After scrutinizing me for a while, her face fell. "Zhang Teng, what are you talking about? What old man? Vice President Lu from Splendid Sun Real Estate? Let me tell you, don't let your imagination run wild. We're just business partners!"

"What kind of business partner would be so generous to give you thirty million yuan?" I sneered.

My wife said in shock, "How did you know… Oh, you checked my card!"

At this point, I was ready to risk everything. I yelled, "Do you dare to say that he didn't give you the money? Yu Qing, do you dare to swear to God that he didn't give you the money?! Was that to compensate you for being willing to give birth to his illegitimate child?!"

Slap!

My wife's face turned red as she slapped me hard across the face!

In that instant, I froze, raising a hand to my face.

She actually… slapped me?!

If I really intend to retaliate, two of her wouldn't even be my match.

Pulling hair and scratching faces wouldn't work on a grown man like me.

However, I hadn't expected her to slap me and I was caught off guard!

After that, flames of rage surged madly.

F*ck!

She cheated on me, and she still dared to hit me!

My wife pointed at me and screamed, "You're so disgusting! In your eyes, I, Yu Qing, is that kind of woman?! Zhang Teng, I'm really blind to have married a useless piece of trash like you! Not only did you malign me, but you even criticized your own son! Are you even human!"

My anger was raging, and I was shaking with fury. I clenched my fists.

My wife continued yelling hysterically, "You don't have any capability at all! What right do you have to lecture me!? If you're capable, buy me a Louis Vuitton bag! If you're capable, give our family a better house! If you're not capable, don't think so highly of yourself! You don't earn as much as I do and you don't even know that your son is sick. How dare you yell at me!"

Her words made me even angrier!

Every word of hers stabbed through my heart!

It was only recently that she surpassed my earnings. Before the investment failed, all the expenses were paid by me!

But her words seemed to imply that I was a freeloader who had never earned money!

My wife was obviously furious. She laughed mockingly. "Fine, if you think I'm that kind of woman, then consider me one! Since you doubt that Qiqi isn't your son, then that can be the truth. What are you dissatisfied with? Haha! Someone is helping you to support your wife and son. Shouldn't you be grateful to him?"

I stiffened!

I was indeed a failure.

But I wasn't a man who could be humiliated by anyone!

I suddenly jumped off the bed and surveyed my surroundings with bloodshot eyes. I grabbed a fruit knife from the table next to me.

I wanted to kill her!

"Zhang Teng, what are you doing!" When my wife saw me, she was shocked and hurriedly jumped off the bed.

I whirled around, gasping and shaking.

However, the moment before I acted, my parents and siblings flashed across my mind.

The impulse disappeared in an instant.

I let go and the knife fell to the ground.

No, I can't kill her!

But looking at her, I really couldn't take it anymore!

Emotions surged and I took a few steps back. I leaned against the wall and sat down.

I hugged my head and buried it between my knees. My tears flowed uncontrollably again!

It was said that men didn't cry easily.

All these years, I've never really cried. I always felt that I was a strong man. No matter what trouble or setbacks I faced, I wouldn't succumb to tears.

But after these few days, I knew…

Even if I didn't want to cry, there would always be something in this world that would make me cry!

Those things that you thought would never happen to you would always happen in the blink of an eye!

"You're really a useless bum! I thought you were a man!" My wife's voice sounded. Not only had her shock vanished, she even sounded disdainful. "Why are you crying? If you want to cry, go outside and cry! Stop affecting my rest!"

I held my head tightly and fought the urge to cry!

If not, I would really rush over and strangle her to death!

But I also knew I couldn't do that.

Perhaps, as she had said, I was just a useless bum…

A phone suddenly rang.

It was my wife's cell phone!

Moreover, the tune was very different.

I subconsciously looked up and saw my wife picking up her phone from the bedside table. On the screen flashed Vice President Lu's name!

She actually… she actually delegated a personal ringtone to that fellow!

My wife ignored me and picked up the call. She leaned against the headboard and said softly, "Hello Vice President Lu. Yes, thank you for your concern. Qiqi's fever has gone down. The doctor said that he should be fine after another day of IV drip tomorrow! You don't have to worry. I'll take care of him…"

My eyes widened and I stood up.

She actually dared to flirt with that old man in front of me!

My breathing grew heavier, and my eyes glinted with fury as I glared at my wife.

Her back was facing me and she was still talking. Her tone was gentle and charming, unlike how she had yelled at and mocked me earlier!

It was as if she was the old man's wife and not my wife!

She acted so brazenly. Did she really think that I was a useless bum?!

"Oh, you're so bad… I wasn't in a good mood initially, but after hearing your voice, I feel better… Really? Don't break your promise!"

Every word was like a needle that stabbed into my heart!

Suddenly, I growled and leaped onto the bed, leaping behind her!

I flipped her onto the bed!

"Ah! Zhang Teng, what are you doing! Don't… Oh! Don't… Let… Let go of me!" My wife screamed and dropped her phone as she struggled desperately.
